Morrison H. B. -A- #4 (API 42-475-33795) is a well in Ward County operated by Diamondback E&P LLC, completed September 30, 2022 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in August 1, 2018.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1987 and 1988, permitted to 6,700 ft.

It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Base Red Bed, Base Red Beds, Rustler, Lamar.

Its 2 leases have reported 260K barrels of oil and 967K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
